AC Milan supporter groups have announced they won't be traveling to England for the Champions League clash at Liverpool.

Ultras say UEFA and English authorities have made the prospect impossible.

"It is with a heavy heart that we are forced to forego the trip to Liverpool next week," wrote the Curva Sud Milano group in an Instagram post.

“The information is still confused and uncertain, there aren't many flights and the rigid English rules around covid give us no other choice.

“UEFA have once again showed that 'football is for the fans' remains an empty slogan. The truth is that once more the fans are pushed aside, the authorisation from the European football chiefs to attend away games was given less than a week before the first fixtures and even then dependent on the decisions of individual governments."
